+module: ohai
+short_description: Returns inventory data from I(Ohai)
+description:
+     - Similar to the M(facter) module, this runs the I(Ohai) discovery program
+       (U(http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Ohai)) on the remote host and 
+       returns JSON inventory data.
+       I(Ohai) data is a bit more verbose and nested than I(facter).
